Happy Friday Tableau world!
I am struggling with something which I believe should be fairly simple and was hoping someone on here may be able to help.
The image below shows actual data in the first columns followed by a simple bar chart. So far so good.
My problem arises when I try and drop in a dimension on the color attribute to essentially make that bar chart a stacked bar. Instead of doing that, Tableau creates a new chart for each item. See the image below.
I was hoping for those colors to essentially be broken out in the first image so I am left with one single line of information.
Anyone have any thoughts on what I am doing wrong? I apologize in advance for the stupid question.
Thank you!

Hi Grant
If you are looking for a single bar like this
you would duplicate the data and union it to itself
this will use the individual copies to create a single measure
and this placed on color breaks out the individual values/colors
